Thanks, I had 5mm spacers on there and it looked perfect but it scraped so bad I couldn't even drive it out of the tire shop haha. I probably should've got 255s instead of 265 because Advan AD08s run wide as all hell. I plan on cutting the fender flares a bit and trying again

What's the back spacing on the wheels? 265 is the size tire I would like to run or at least a 255.I'm guessing that wide you needed those fender flares? Did you cut any of the stock fenders when mounting them?

The offset is 20. A lot of it depends on what brand tire it is since some brands run wider than others but without cutting the fenders and using fender flares, I can't imagine more than a 245 fitting unless the car is at stock ride height. I had 235/35s before this on RRM springs and I barely made it with the stock fenders rolled, but they still rubbed when there was too much weight in the car.

The color's holding up nicely! It's a nice piece and has a lifetime warranty, but I wouldn't trade a CBRD fmic (which is made in the US as opposed to the Mishi being made in China) for it. Maybe just powdercoat the CBRD is you'd like yours black

Anodizing is great, just make sure you take it somewhere familiar with anodizing radiators, intercoolers, and the like. With all the passages and fins and whatnot, the tank gets hotter than when you anodize a solid piece so you need to use a special dye or the color will be all jacked up
